Penn is years ahead of him in the stand up, lifetimes ahead of him in BJJ and his sprawl is so good. I doubt Deigo would take him down. Hughes, Stand up about the same. Wrestling Hughes 2 time d-1 collegiete all american. Deigo didn't wrestle in College. BJJ hughes I believe took 3rd at adcc(even it was a work with horn) he would have at the lowest placed fouth. Deigo got knocked out of that tourny. So once again that leaves him 4th. Karo better cardio would win, Diaz improved sprawl(ie sherk fight) could win. Deigo is so far from invinicible. On the Riggs fight he was caught off balance, the knee knocked him out. You can see him quickly get to a foot and knee base waiting for Deigo to run into him, however Diego threw a knee which knocked him out. Also Riggs is a gate keeper at best, Gassaway sucks. So break it down and you see Deigo is not that great. He has good cardio, decent wrestling, decent ground control, Poor stand up, Good Bjj. See when he break him down you see he is nothing special and you will see that when he fights one of the top three.
